Blood Drive

January 23, 2020
When: 10:00AM - 2:00PM
Where: Conference Center, 2345 Building


The world’s blood supply comes from caring donors like you. When you give blood, it gives someone another smile, another hug, another chance. It is the gift of life. Our goal is 15 pints of blood (only 15 people). Be a donor today!

Book your appointment HERE.

All donors will receive a special thank you from Noodles & Company.

Who benefits from blood donation?
At Versiti Blood Center of Illinois, formerly Heartland Blood Centers, we never forget the patients who receive the blood we collect. Every unit of blood is collected from volunteer donors who meet specific criteria and have been screened according to strict guidelines. Every unit (pint) is collected, transported, tested and stored according to tightly-controlled procedures.

Examples of transfusion needs are:

  • Cancer: up to 8 units/month

  • Bone Marrow Transplant: up to 2 units/day

  • Liver Transplant: up to 100 units

  • Auto Accident: up to 50 units

  • Cardiovascular Surgery: 2-25 units

For specific questions regarding your blood drive, please contact your Account Representative, John Wielgosz, directly at JWielgosz@heartlandbc.org.
